Avid Acutus - Standard or Reference


I am a very happy owner of an Avid Acutus turntable. I am using it with Dynavector 507MKII tonearm and XV-1s cartridge.

Has anybody compared the standard power supply of the Acutus to the new reference power supply? Is the sonic difference between the two marginal or easily audible?

Sure Daveyf.

Anybody who has compared the two? I have heard them both myself, but not in the same system. Or, there went to much time in between, I'm not sure the owner changed other things, and I don't trust my acoustic memory from months back.

Thanks for your reply Phaser.

You may be right about the importance of precise speed. I have not checked my turntable, but I know this issue has been fixed on later models. I don't think there is any point in buying the reference powerer supply just for the speed, if there is a speed issue that should be possible to fix for less money with the standard power supply

So, we have nobody with experience from both power supplies?
